Why is a pickup that we have never used to tow or work with all Hwy miles, bought new and paid nearly $67,000.00 for new rattling like a pile of junk when we start it?
It seems like the fuel has drained back for right bank of cylinders and is not present when it is needed to fire; almost like there is a vacuum problem. The longer it sets between starts the more it rattles. I think it's dry firing and rattling like a diesel engine while the left side is firing.
Fuel injection has been around for a while, and this seems to be unique to this engine. Our 2015 for did not do this... Why hasn't someone figured this out yet?
Have not done mechanic work for years and don't care too anymore.... so, if this sounds stupid, I could care less.
